Well, it does appear you were deported in absentia. Did you ever receive notice of the appearance requirement? If not, you may be able to make a motion to reopen. Or, did you come to the court date, and you got deported? Usually, you need to wait ten years after an order of deportation, but... View More

Any lease that was originated by a broker's attorney should be allowed a 3 day attorney review period. however, if it was created by a lawyer, that probably not.

Yes, you can usually do this. while I practice in New Jersey, I'm sure South Carolina has a procedure for a "name change." This is usually done through the court system. You usually have to provide proof of your identity, and also make notice in the papers. You must be sure to do... View More
